Compilation fails following instructions

[José María Miotto]

I tried to install the game as descripted in the instructions, but I get an error, it seems that my system doesn't recognize the SDL library. Below I post the full log of the cmake:

good day, what os???

if ubuntu like you need install SDL2

$sudo apt-get install libsdl2-dev

[José María Miotto]

Hi! I have the latest ubuntu.

In deed the sdl2 was missing, so I added it to the necessary dependencies in the wiki.

Now I have a different error, in the compiler:

chuse@chuse:~/Games/caesaria$ make [ 3%] Built target zlib [ 6%] Built target libpng [ 6%] Built target smk [ 7%] Built target aes [ 8%] Built target bzip2 [ 24%] Built target freetype Scanning dependencies of target ttf [ 24%] Building C object dep/ttf/CMakeFiles/ttf.dir/SDL_ttf.c.o /home/chuse/Games/caesaria/dep/ttf/SDL_ttf.c:34:17: fatal error: SDL.h: No such file or directory #include "SDL.h" ^ compilation terminated. make[2]: [dep/ttf/CMakeFiles/ttf.dir/SDL_ttf.c.o] Error 1 make[1]: [dep/ttf/CMakeFiles/ttf.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2

[José María Miotto]

notice that /usr/include/ doesn't have any SDL.h file, but there's a SDL and SDL2 folder; SDL has SDL.h, SDL_endian.h and SDL_ttf.h; SDL2 has only the first two.

[dalerank]

did you fix those errors???

[José María Miotto]

if I change to #include "SDL/SDL.h", for those three includes, I get yet another error, this is why I wanted to know first what do you think...

[dalerank]

did you say cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ./ before make??? usually SDL2 install into /usr/include/SDL2, where your location of SDL2/SDL.h???

[dalerank]

did this problem fixed???

[José María Miotto]

So, I changed the location, and I fixed the resulting error by installing libdsl2-ttf-dev. Now I have other errors anyway. I'll close this ticket.
